Aztec Calendar Canvas

Mesoamerican calendars, circular representations of 365-days, were used by Pre-Columbian civilizations of Central America such as the Aztecs, Incas, and the Mayans for both keeping time and for spiritual rituals. You might recognize these elaborate stone carving from the Doomsday Phenomenon years ago, when a bunch of people believed the world was going to end on December 21, 2012 when the Mayan Calendar ended. Meanwhile, the Mayan’s weren’t predicting any sort of Armageddon, just the awaiting the dawn of a new Age.
